South African’s all over the country have seemed to have had enough of the current state of affairs and have banded forces to take to the streets. A social media campaign that started last weekend, encouraged South Africans to bring the nation to a standstill. In defiance and in sheer anger over the Zuma’s reckless decisions and the country being downgraded into junk status, mass protests have been organised.

In the latest poll conducted on Twitter, 52% of responders are agreeing that they will join the march, while 29% are claiming they cannot get off work. 6% are unsure if they want to join in the protest action. All we can say is, that if change is what you seek in the country, we have an ultimate guide of where to go to add your voice!
